It is claimed that we start as a blank sheet of paper Unblemished by the darkness that welcomes us from light We know that we knew nothing and nothing knew of we… But without reason we are born into and with a reason What came before wrote our after in their ever after… It is all managed, scripted and directed and sold To the scorn of the new from burdens of the old But residing in the darkness and toeing a line as we are not sentient, gifted by God We are the fires putting out flames that are burning down what comes next and came before Brought into abundance and scarred by scarcity Enhanced by desire at a terminal velocity We have categories, pre-conceived, written by those that died fulfilling theirs Because we are illustrations filed in the office space designated to us pre-birth But we stil grasp at a contract signed With the theory that we are not pre-defined So we sing tales of omnipotence, love and perfection While in the midst of our impotence, loss and misdirection Fables of faces empowered, emboldened, spirited, consoled While fed up, embattled, deflowered, controlled We are born with a back story Drafted with simplicity the aim But, in mine, for my method is my madness I feel fantastic all the same… I wrote a letter, to my creator And this is what it said I’d beg for forgiveness here, but it's you, that made a man I evolve while you revolve, and I remain what you retain I involve while you dissolve and I contain all your blame I calmly enter, imagination Something I can’t digress I seek anonymity A hollow, distinct pleasantry I know the realism, is not the final straw Not tried or temporary, and not like before… So in your distaste I continue, and in your place I usurp you For my method is my madness, I feel fantastic all the same I recognize, interpretation It’s just the usual In light of what is asked of me It never sees the light of day You know the truth around it, I'm your greatest lucky guess The polished old material, the ethereal best… So in your distaste I continue, and in your place I usurp you For my method is my madness, I feel fantastic all the same
